Histatin-8 [Hemagglutination – Inhibiting Peptide (HIP)] CAS NO.127637-03-0

Histatin-8 [Hemagglutination-Inhibiting Peptide (HIP)] is a high-purity synthetic peptide derived from the human salivary histatin family, known for its potent hemagglutination-inhibiting, antifungal, and antimicrobial activities. This multifunctional peptide plays a critical role in innate immune defense, particularly in oral and mucosal immunity. Manufactured under stringent quality controls with ≥95% HPLC-verified purity and comprehensive analytical documentation, it provides researchers with a reliable tool for studying host-pathogen interactions, microbial adhesion, and therapeutic applications in infectious diseases. Its ability to inhibit hemagglutination makes it a valuable candidate for antiviral and antibacterial research.

1.MECHANISM OF ACTION

Histatin-8 exerts its biological effects through multiple mechanisms: (1) Hemagglutination Inhibition – by competitively binding to viral or bacterial hemagglutinin proteins, blocking their interaction with host cell surface receptors (e.g., sialic acid residues), thereby preventing agglutination and cellular entry; (2) Antifungal Activity – disruption of fungal cell membrane integrity via electrostatic interactions and pore formation, leading to ion leakage and cell death; (3) Antimicrobial Action – targeting microbial membranes and interfering with intracellular processes, such as protein synthesis and enzyme activity; and (4) Immunomodulation – influencing inflammatory responses and immune cell recruitment. Its amphipathic structure and cationic nature enable broad-spectrum activity against pathogens.
